Data integration to support modern BI and advanced analytics programmes
By: TechTarget ComputerWeekly.com
Type: eGuide
Data integration and preparation are the unsung heroes of modern BI and advanced analytics. More so than ever, it would seem, due to the ever-increasing volume and variety of data.
The traditional paradigm of feeding a data warehouse with data that had been extracted from source systems, including transactional databases, then transformed to be loaded for subsequent analysis, using BI tools or statistical analysis software – that paradigm is not History, but it is being complemented with newer models. These latter are more about analysing real-time data, using fast, in-memory databases on the back end. And there is a raft of data preparation tools now available to get the data spruced up and ready for analysis quicker.
Some of these tools have come out of Silicon Valley, where much of the relatively recent wave of back end big data technologies, too, have been invented – originally to serve the needs of Google, Facebook, Amazon, and the rest. We look at some of these data integration and preparation technologies, as show-cased on press trips to Silicon Valley. The most recent of these brought to the fore the need for CIOs to get more economic value from their investments in big data technologies through data integration, including data catalogues.
Dave Wells, practice director, data management at the Eckerson Group puts these more recent approaches in perspective, in a spirited blogpost that argues that the “traditional” data warehouse is not dead.
We also look, in this e-guide, at how British Airways has brought its international business-to-business sales under Salesforce Sales Cloud to bust its data silos. The self-service BI that BA is enabling for its sales professionals is an ambition for many companies. Consultant Rick Sherman, in an interview with SearchDataManagement’s Jack Vaughan, explains how understanding the data integration process is central to such self-service BI and data architecture design.

How Gen AI and Business Intelligence Will Work Together in 2024
By:
Type: Talk
Today’s business intelligence programs take a radically different approach to their predecessors. Where BI used to focus on data reporting and primarily historical analysis, now BI teams are able to utilize predictive analytics thanks to new AI capabilities. With Generative AI specifically, business intelligence is becoming more accessible; these tools further reduce the barrier to entry by enabling consumers with very low to no data analysis knowledge to not only use the reports, but also to perform analysis. The effects of Gen AI on business intelligence are already being seen. Organizations are noticing that it reduces the process and time needed to collect and prepare data, while offering speech-activated user interfaces to perform analysis. This conversational style UX helps to develop smart recommendations of actions that BI teams can take in 2024. It is expected that this collaboration will only grow, making this year an exciting time for business intelligence strategy. In this new episode of The BI Report, host Gowri Selka and her guest panel will explore how Gen AI will help BI to enhance the speed, accessibility and ability to personalize actions. Join this session to explore further practical ways to integrate Gen AI with BI.

Quality ingredients are a must if you’re looking for quality results and this is especially true for business intelligence. In order to draw useful conclusions, BI teams must be able to look at accurate data that is relevant for their specific queries.

Data Governance & Regulatory Compliance: How BI Can Help
By:
Type: Talk
Data is meaningless unless it is handled in an efficient, organized way that ensures quality and accuracy. To achieve this, organizations need to introduce a consistent standard of data handling, otherwise known as a data governance protocol. By targeting such things as data integrity, data standardization and audit capabilities, BI teams can develop a system that supplies them with the best quality data so they can turn it into the most useful intelligence. It’s now just the BI unit that wins here. BI tools can also be used to reverse engineer data protocols and strengthen governance and compliance. This technology is designed to detect patterns and sort data, making it a great tool to detect any issues with existing governance so that organizations can refine their protocol. In this latest episode of The BI Report, our panel will break down how BI can help strengthen data governance and regulatory compliance in a symbiotic relationship.
